Replica BOMARC-CIM 10 Missile

This is a sources-sought market research notice issued by the Department of Defense through the 87th Air Base Wing at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, New Jersey, with the solicitation number FA448426UFR0001, posted on April 24, 2026, and responding by May 15, 2026. The intent is to gather industry input for the potential future procurement of a 1:1 scale static replica of the BOMARC CIM-10 missile and its erector launcher, to be installed at Heritage Park adjacent to Pudgy Circle and Building 3011. The replica must replicate the exact 1960s-era configuration used at McGuire AFB, constructed entirely from new materials without any refurbished components, and painted according to historical military specifications. All work must be coordinated with the 87 ABW Historian for historical accuracy, and the contractor is responsible for site preparation, transportation, installation, and compliance with safety, security, and environmental requirements, including adherence to the EPA Bio-Preferred Program for materials. The notice does not include formal contract clauses from the FAR or DFARS, nor does it specify evaluation factors, award basis, pricing, or funding details, as it serves only a pre-solicitation research purpose. There is no defined contract value, no list of formal attachments, and no specified packaging, marking, or invoicing requirements. While a 365-day performance period is implied after award, no firm delivery schedule is established. The contractor must assign a Contract Manager with full operational authority, ensure personnel wear identifying apparel, comply with on-site access and security protocols, and obtain prior approval for all materials and installation plans. The government provides no property, utilities, or support, and the contractor is liable for any damage to site infrastructure. All submissions must be made via federal procurement systems by the deadline, and while response formats are not dictated, technical plans such as the installation methodology are expected for review. No socioeconomic set-asides apply, and the NAICS code 339999 is listed for Miscellaneous Manufacturing. This is not a solicitation for award but a request for industry capability assessment in anticipation of future contracting activity.
